Are there any child infected by flu and cough even after taking pneumococcal vaccine?
I thought this shot is taken when baby is 4 months old?
For how long can this shot last? Thanks

you will have to take 4 shots (2 months, 4 months, 6 months and 12 months). better to start early, don't take chance.
